# Simple One-Way Email Notification Profile

> The Simple One-Way Email Notification Profile is used to notify users when alarms occur, based on priority level. Unlike the standard Email Notification Profile, this one does not use alarm pipelines and does not include acknowledgment links in the emails.

Instead, it listens for active alarms within a specified priority range and sends notifications to a configured [On-Call Roster](ignition-modules/alarm-notification/on-call-rosters/on-call-rosters.md). When the criteria is met, the profile sends alerts to all users in the configured roster.

:::note
The Simple One-Way Email Notification Profile requires the [Alarm Notification module](getting-started/modules-overview/core-modules/alarm-notification-module.md) to be installed.
